Move Spotify on Lock screen.

Does anyone know how to move the music widget from the bottom of the lock screen to more central on the beta 2?

Spotify player on the lock screen is located in the Now Bar. You cannot move the location of the Now Bar.

Tap on the Spotify player in the Now Bar to expand it to display the album art and to enlarge the Spotify player buttons.

Hello @mattb,

Thanks for sharing your feedback! If anybody else would like to have an option to move the widget/Now Bar - please let us know in the comments. If it gathers a lot of support, I will pass this suggestion to the relevant team

Have a great day!

I just updated to 7.0 this morning and now the old Spotify lock screen "what's playing" card has been shrunk considerably and moved to the bottom of the lock screen (which I've learned is called the "now bar"). I really miss the prior placement and sizing. It'd be nice if this was customizable (and while we're at it, if there was a way to make the lock screen wallpaper change based on the album art of what's playing, that'd be neat, but the old player would already do that pretty well, so really I just want that back pls 😭)

@AnnaMaz I fully agree. The new lock screen player is inconveniently small and difficult to reach due to it being too far down. It would be great to have the option to use a player that's bigger and more centered, like the one we had in OneUI 6.

Exactly! I just updated and I'm already missing this feature. I used it all day long.

Please, devs, let us choose

I would also love for the spotify widget to be larger and moved back to the middle of the lock screen. It was easy just to press and go, or rewind to a specific part of the song, but now the extra tap on such a tiny bar is really irritating especially because my phone relocks before I can press anything (my phone is supposed to auto lock every 5 mins. I think it has something to do with the "motion" features). Anyway, all of that to say please put the spotify widget back to where it was and the size that it was please

Hi Anna! I've just updated today. Yes, it's necessary to be able to move the widget. It used to be in the center. For some strange reason it's in the bottom now and it's hard for me to reach it with a finger when using with one hand. Please move it to the center.

Please bring back the old spotify now playing on lock screen and in drop down. While you're at it make everything back how it was. Samsung users liked their Samsung's for what what were. Now it just feels like diet Apple.
